Wiring Diagram

Anyone have a wiring diagram for a 2008 SM5 spyder?

Thanks

I do. They came with the 2008 shop manual. What in particular are you looking at/for ?

My problem is I have a Buschtec trailer hitch and wiring and I purchased a non Buschtec trailer and am having a hell of a time finding the wires to hook to on my spyder.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Not sure the BRP wiring diagram will help you much. If you installed the Bushtec wiring harness, you'll need to take a volt meter and just figure out what wires do what--- should be easy enough to track down with the bike on. You should have ground, brake and one for each blinker. You should get a wiring diagram from the trailer manufacturer-- then just figure out what is supposed to plug where and wire the plug to match up to the Bushtec harness.

Thanks, I sent an e-mail to the trailer company. Hopefully they will respond soon. Driving me nuts.:gaah:

For a simple trailer like that--- you should have a ground (green), possibly a negative (black), and then 3 positives---- Brakes, Left turn, Right turn.

You can probably use a 9V battery and a couple of stripped wires to figure out what wires on the trailer--- Just run the negative of the 9V to the green or black--- and then try the positive on the other pins and see what happens.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I'm sure it's one of those simple things....... But sometimes it seems I can't find my azz with both hands.:yikes:

Anyway thanks a bunch.:thumbup:

Thanks a bunch, the 9v test worked just fine. I have brake lights, running lights, right turn signal, still have to work on left turn signal, that should be easy enough. You the man/women/:thumbup:

Forgot about the running lights-----

Glad the 9V test is working.

BTW---- I would make a really ugly woman!
